We had three girls for about 3 weeks, I bought all the gear and they were treated like princesses but I got unbelievably stressed about them, doing the usual patrols throught the night with a torch, socks with hair in, big man having to wee all over the garden. The problem was that we so,sties don't get home from work until midnight so despite them being in a run, I couldn't lock the coop until late so they went to someone else who had other hens. A pity.

We've used lengths of fleece to cover it up (the blackbird hopped down to start scoffing the seed as we worked on the garden!) but the fleece keeps lifting in the wind. Golf tees are brilliant for pegging it down.
